Hi-8 Tape Life
I was just about to post a similar question pertaining to Hi-8 tapes. I know the format is out of date, but the customer requires Hi-8 tape recording.
How many times can a Hi-8 tape cartridge be reused to record before tape wear starts to create drop-outs? Do Hi-8 cartridges fail before the actual tape? Any anecdotal evidence is appreciated, any empirical evidence would be very appreciated.
